Sadly, 50% of the remaining traffic fatalities were mimes, and mimes have become an endangered species in Columbia.

I don’t care if they’re true. You get an upvote for Saitama.

Oil rigs are designed to withstand catastrophic weather events which could occur in 1,000 years or 10,000 years

If you're lazy it's "Lake Longname Nocansay."

What drowning looks like (cause I suddenly felt compelled to look it up): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YL9wb4tUlhI

I stopped reading at #2 because it isn't true at all. The guy was working DNR and cut down a 5k year old bristlecone pine. NOT the oldest.
Threewisemen
He was trying to figure out the age and he was abruptly fired for his stupidity. There are other bristlecone pine far older.

The parents unknowingly watching their children drown: oh, they know alright.

Can confirm.

the liver one is misleading. the liver is divided into 7 lobes, each lobe can fully regenerate itself but if you lose a lobe, it wont regen

#8421 We won’t run out of new music, but there’s only so many ways you can put notes in that sound pleasing to the human ear 1/2
991cookie
That’s why so much new music sounds similar to older music. That and direct sampling obviously 2/2
CrazedDrifter
#29 Of course all the factories close. The kids are all busy taking the test.

#7 Yet all music these days sound exactly the same, with little to no variation.

#8429 okay so what about her? That’s a fragment. Finish your sentence.

The gondola one reminds me of the anime Aria.

#12 is just fucking disgusting
spaghettiThunderbolt
It's less disgusting (still disgusting, though) when you remember it has to be certified, shipped, and inserted by a medical professional.

If you lose 75% of your liver it will NOT GROW BACK 100%. At best you will get 30% back. Ugh. these facts are wrong.

Sterile saline is not salt water. It’s .9% sodium chloride to remain neutral with the human body.

Even so it is still very cheap to manufacture.

The reason we'll never run out of new songs is we recycle old better songs with crappy new ones and say they're original.
Gorestain
This is the kind of thing only people who don't know how to discover new music say.
AtSymbolUsername
Easy now. I like and do enjoy finding new music. It was just a joke founded in truth. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=i0c_fh_ETM0

The $75 one is misleading. He got a couple million after all the court proceedings.
gaidinbdj
Yea, that $75 included none of the statutory damage or settlement.

Did he really??? I googled it and this is the most recent thing I could find. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/amp.tennessean.com/amp/308151002

Last I heard he got nothing because the initial trial was considered a fair trial so the prison sentence is justified.
NoYOUtheName
It doesn't sound like a very fun fact to me.
BaaadGuyEviiilGuy
Ohhh thank God. I actually came done here to comment a really nasty comment about that, but nvm. 75 is way too much.
clevermotherfucker
Too much?
BaaadGuyEviiilGuy
Nah, but it would've been if I included his race in the joke. Thankfully, I didn't.

Fish*, the plural word for fish is fish.
Couchguy303
Clearly you forgot about this commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXvHdzmpBQc
grklein
When you're talking about different species of fish, the plural is indeed "fishes": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish#Fish_or_fishes
stewpedasole
You CAN use fishes for fish of different species. Because you can do something doesn't mean it's socially acceptable. Like sister loving.

You're not just paying for the $1 bag of saline. You're also paying for the physician who ordered it and the RN trained to safely give it.
GoldenRamoth
Yeah well, so that's what? with computers, less than 3 minutes for the doc, and maybe 15 min for the RN? They aren't worth $3200/hr or more.
shadowsmiles42
Well, at least our nurses are well paid then...right?.... right?
benm421
Having said that, $800 IS a lot.
TechnicallyRight
Psst, hospitals aren't a service for people, it's a business that sells healthcare. Until we remove the business from it, it will be about $
Sauroctonus
Are you related to Ken M?
PorneliusHubart
Do we have infinite saline? The price is so that everyone and their mother doesn't get a bag o saline whenever they ask for it.
goingtogoeatworms
$800 is absurd.
